Friday,July 28,2000-Noon
would be discussed in the Closed Session. City Attorney Jorgensen advised the Council
that all requirements had been met and confirmed that the Closed Session was
appropriately noticed and properly posted. Mr. Davis argued that the City has also violated
provisions for meeting with labor negotiators and stated that while the City may have a duty
to meet and consult,it does not necessarily have a duty to meet and confer. Speaking to
the issue of the citizen-initiated ballot measure, Mr. Davis voiced objection to the ballot
question and argued that the language, "final without council or voter approval" is
redundant and biased. He submitted that the question should read, "Shall the Charter be
amended to require that labor disputes between the SLO Police Officers Association and
the SLO Firefighters Association be resolved by binding arbitration?".
Jason Berg, President of SLOPOA and Jeff Zimmerman, President of[AFF Local 3523,
spoke in favor of placing the citizen-initiated measure on the ballot and urged the Council
to not add to the ballot a companion measure.
--end of public comments—

the CAO's recommendation and noted that their positions are on file with the City Clerk.

2. RESOLUTION OPPOSING BINDING ARBITRATION AND PLACING AN ADDITIONAL
CHARTER AMENDMENT REGARDING BINDING ARBITRATION (COUNCIL-
INITIATED)ON THE NOVEMBER 7.2000 BALLOT.
Human Resources Director Slate introduced the staff report. Dave Hill.City of Anaheim,
discussed the effects that binding arbitration has had on his organization. Legal Counsel
Whitmore provided general comments on interest arbitration and recent experiences in the
cities of Salinas and Gilroy. Director of Finance Statler addressed the fiscal impacts of
binding arbitration. Fire Chief Neumann, speaking on behalf of himself and the Police
Chief,addressed potential program level issues and voiced concern that binding
arbitration, if approved by the voters,will erode the management authority of the police and
fire chiefs. Human Resources Director Slate outlined the major components of the
proposed companion measure,which are intended to mitigate the impacts to the City if the
citizens-initiated ballot measure passes. She emphasized that the charter amendment will
only go into effect if it and the citizen-initiated charter amendment receive majority voter
approval.
City Administrative Officer Dunn spoke in opposition to binding arbitration because it takes
decisions away from the Council and because it diminishes the abilities of the police and
fire chiefs to manage their departments. In closing, he argued that binding arbitration will
reduce monetary resources available for other City services.

about the contract schedule. He noted that the project is on schedule per the revised project
plan but added that if crews could work at night, it would help. Civil Engineer van den Eikhof
reported that approval for night time work can be given,but there are noise restrictions after

to work at night without noise restrictions and,further, if they were allowed to close Higuera
Street during the day; if not both lanes at least one. Assistant City Administrative Officer.
Hamman asked if the contractor would consider working during the weekends. Alex Madonna
provided additional clarification about the status to-date. He reported that there were

that he doesn't see why they should have to work evenings and weekends to catch up. Mr.
Madonna requested that the City allow the contractor some flexibility; specifically,allow the
use of two breakers instead of one and close an additional lane on Higuera Street.
In response to inquiry from Council Member Marx,Public Works Director McCluskey reported
that the agreement to leave two lanes open was based on significant public input. City
Attorney Jorgensen advised the Council that if they want to make a change, it is highly
inadvisable to make any modifications to the contract tonight. He explained that Mr.Madonna
should request any proposed changes to the terms of the construction contract in writing and
allow staff to analyze the impacts.
Council Member Ewan voiced hope that access to the downtown can be maintained and
suggested that the City consult with the business owners in.the downtown. Assistant City
Administrative Officer Hampian reported that every Thursday morning the Downtown
Association holds a meeting with the contractor and the merchants. That meeting is open to

filed against the City about the previously mentioned delay and that any comments made this
evening should not be construed as acquiescence.

that she is willing to continue working with Wizard Marketing and outlined suggestions for
enhancing the promotion.
Dave Kastner,Cal Photo,supports the additional funding for advertising and noted that he
would support closing Higuera down to one lane,but asked the Council not to allow the close
